252 of Japan’s favorite animated gifs

Hey, you got a minute to spare? Actually make that a couple dozen minutes. We’d like to share a few hundred of the wildest and funniest gifs getting circulated around the net in Japan.

Of course cats are well represented here but we also got dogs, spiders, manatees, lions, (no tigers), bears, monkeys, turtles, and people all injuring themselves and each other. Watch and marvel at feats of strength of these animals and people, and enjoy even more the cringe-worthy carnage that ensues when they don’t quite make it. Get an eyeful of a guy getting bitten in the nuts by a rottweiler. Enjoy military misfires, cats in zero gravity and the magic of Coach Raphael Benitez. Both faked and real hypnotically looped images are here for your amusement.

***NOTE: These gifs are broken into five pages of 50, but you may still experience some lag depending on your device or connection. If you notice a gif not moving then just click on it to open in another window.***
